What This Bill Proposed
Kansas HB 2419 expands the (KORA) exemptions to allow certain retired members of the (KPERS) who previously held specified public safety, law enforcement, judicial, or legal positions to request that their home addresses and home ownership information be restricted from public websites. Under the measure, public agencies have 10 business days from receiving a written request to restrict this identifying information, and the restriction remains active for five years before requiring renewal.
Retired public safety officers and legal professionals gain the option to shield their home addresses and property ownership records from searchable public government websites, changing how easily private citizens can access this property data.
